About the Benedictine Library

The Benedictine Library serves as the focal point of a student’s academic life at Thomas More University (TMU), acting as a gateway for both independent and collective learning, research, and discovery. We provide quality resources and services to our students, faculty, and staff, helping to facilitate access to information, technology, and education. Resources meet the needs of TMU students, faculty, and staff, focused primarily on the student experience and academic curricula. Our Librarians interact with students, faculty, and staff in meeting information needs and achieving instructional goals. Faculty collaborate with librarians to fulfill and support research-based curricula.

The Benedictine Library and/or our librarians are members of the Association of Independent Kentucky Colleges and Universities (AIKCU), Catholic Library Association (CLA), Federation of Kentucky Academic Libraries (FoKAL), the Kentucky Library Association (KLA) , Kentucky Virtual Library (KyVL), the SouthWest Ohio Neighboring Libraries (SWON), and the Association of Christian Librarians (ACL). Additional to these affiliations the library is an active member with both the Lyrasis and OCLC consortia. Read more at: https://thomasmore.libguides.com/welcome/About
